"Looks Good" Is How 1,000 Units End Up Stranded at the Warehouse.

The sample was a fraction off spec, the polybag was too thin, the suffocation warning was missing. You find out after you have wired for the full run. Describe your sample and run a 25-point test across specs, quality, packaging, compliance, and safety before you approve the PO.

Why the "looks good" test fails

A new seller orders one sample, holds it up, decides it looks good, and wires thousands for a thousand units. Two months later returns hit double digits. The board was a fraction narrow, the polybag failed FBA receiving, the country-of-origin marking was in the wrong place. By then the units are stranded at a warehouse waiting for rework at a per-unit cost, plus weeks of delay. The eye cannot catch a four percent dimension error, and no rubric means every sample gets judged differently.

A structured 25-point test fixes that. Five sections, five points each, every point pass or fail. Three or more fails in any section is a reject. A single fail on safety or compliance blocks the PO until it is resolved. Half an hour up front, thousands saved per launch.

How it works

1. Describe the sample

Spec, measurements, quality, packaging, compliance, and safety. Format shown in the box.

2. Five sections scored

Specs, quality, packaging, compliance, and safety, each out of five, with the failed points named.

3. Verdict plus message

Approve, revise, reject, or block, with a supplier message that lists the fixes and sets a deadline.

Questions sellers ask us

Your details are sent to our server, processed once by the AI to score the sample and draft the supplier message, and not shared with anyone. We keep your email and a short usage summary so we can send you the results. Your input is not resold, published, or used to train anything.

The scorecard grades against known QC and FBA prep principles using what you describe. It cannot handle the sample, measure it, or run the physical tests, so it is only as accurate as your inputs. Treat the verdict as a structured checklist, then confirm the physical tests yourself, especially anything on safety or compliance.

The product, the listing spec, your measurements, what you observed on quality and finish, the packaging and polybag details, and any certifications. The placeholder in the box shows the format. The more you report, the fewer points get marked as unverified.

A four percent width error is invisible to the eye but fatal in returns, and a thin polybag or a missing suffocation warning fails FBA receiving. A structured 25-point test costs half an hour and catches defects that turn into stranded inventory and rework costs after you have already paid for the full run.
